Fights tree belts or more, although I’m not sure if they can be considered super fights.

Bernard Hopkins vs Felix Trinidad For (for the WBC, WBA, and IBF)

Jean-Marc Mormeck vs O’Neil Bell (for the WBC, WBA, and IBF)

Joe Calzaghe vs Mikkel Kessler (for the WBA,WBC, and WBO) should be for the IBF too because Calzaghe did not lose the IBF belt in the ring.

Bernard Hopkins vs Oscar De La Hoya (for the WBA,WBC,WBO, and IBF)

Bernard Hopkins vs Jermain Taylor (for the WBA,WBC,WBO, and IBF)

Why everything does have to be stupid to you? Why can you say, that is not the proper way to define a super fight or something along those lines.

I mention those fights because he specifically asked for three titles or more. And I did make sure to say that I’m not sure it they should be considered super fights. I happen to agree with you that super fights should not be based on the current titles unifications.

Boom!

I laughed for days after that fight. It really isn't all that often that someone in boxing who so badly needs their arse kicked actually gets it.

I remember there were varying opinions about the timing of the stoppage --- some felt it was early, others were OK with it. A short time later, Mundine fought Ottke, & it was seemed like the referees going around at the time had been talked to about the dangers of stopping fights prematurely, because while Mundine lay stone-cold unconscious on the canvas, the ref took the time to studiously count him out

Jeff Fenech - Wilfredo Gomez at 122 would have been dynamite while it lasted

They might not have been "SUPER" fights, but the reward for winning them was prospoeroius indeed...

A fight where three major titles are at stake is pretty much always a very important fight.

The reverse conjecture is the one that's untrue: there are very important fights where few or no main belts are at stake. For example DLH vs. Mayweather.
